BRA ACCESSORIES AND SOLUTIONS

Silicone bra inserts are soft pads that you can add to your everyday bra to add extra lift, definition and shape. They will add volume, or increase your cleavage depending on how you wear them.

Ensure that your breasts are clean and dry. Insert the silicon bra inserts between your bra and your breast.

If you want to lift your breasts higher, place the inserts underneath your bust. If you would like to create more cleavage, place the inserts on the outside of your bust to push your breasts together. You can also select varied sizes and shapes of silicone inserts depending on your desired size and shape.

Bra wash bags are used to protect your bras in the washing machine. Bras are delicately made with many structural details and stretch elastics that can easily be degraded in a regular wash cycle. You should use your bra wash bag when you are washing bras in the machine, rather than with a handwash. To use your bra wash bag correctly ensure that you:

Hook the back enclosure on your bras closed, so that they can not snag in the wash.

The exact frequency will depend on your lifestyle, and what the bra is worn for. For example, a lacy bra worn for a night out will not need to be washed as frequently as a sports bra. If it has been a humid day, and you have sweated a lot, you may like to wash your bra sooner.

A common misconception is that bras need to be washed after every wear. This can actually cause more harm than good, as the detergent can damage the elasticity.

Sagging can also be caused by a fast loss in breast volume. For example, from breast feeding or rapid weight loss. In this case, contour or push up bras can be worn to create desired shape, size and lift.

The purpose of a bra is to hold up women’s breasts. Breasts contain delicate connective tissue meaning they can be easily damaged by gravity and movement over time. Bras were invented to prevent this damage and give women support and comfort.
